DRAMA AT KINGS LANGLEY SCHOOL

WHAT WILL YOU BE LEARNING?

Students will learn how to explore themes, issues and ideas individually and as part of a group. They will learn to appreciate a variety of drama styles, genres and practitioners of different periods in their historical contexts.

HOW WILL YOUR WORK BE ASSESSED?

You will be assessed in a theoretical and practical context via written examination, coursework portfolio and practical performance exam.

All internally assessed performance work is moderated by AQA via video.

WHAT SORT OF WORK WILL YOU BE DOING?

There will be an integrated approach to lessons in which students will work both practically and theoretically in all tasks. Students will explore dramatic techniques, styles, genres and practitioners of different time periods commenting on their own work and the work of others.

Students will develop team work skills which will enable them to make considered decisions about devising their own performances in preparation for moderation whilst also considering new and imaginative methods of communicating through theatre.
